Re: Okay so what's the trick to get gmail working?

Are you able to actually log in over the web to your Gmail?

Also, because you are mentioning qutie a few things here,

are you trying to retrieve your gmail from your phone? or are you trying to forward your gmail to your phone? these are two different things...

Another question... do you have a true gmail address? xxxxx@gmail.com? or do you have an address that just has gmail as the backbone? I have a few like that and the set up is _slightly_ different....

Next up... are you trying to do it through activesync? so you have the contacts and calanders and push mail? or just through the email service?

Lastly, when you are setting up the "username" are you entering the full email address as the user name? xxxxx@gmail.com is the user name for gmail, not just the xxxx part.....

Sorry to ask so many questions, but so much could be going wrong it's best to narrow it down..
Thanks for all that! I have a true gmail address and I can get right on gmail with opera browser no problem.

I have phone service with Cricket and I don't know if that is somehow goofing this up but I have tried every possible configuration and that gmail cab won't even work for some reason. After I put in my user name and password it just says loading or something like that and just never goes anywhere.

I am trying to set it up so that I can go to my mail tab and then hit send receive and it will check to see if I have any new emails and then view them. Thanks
